Pasting Resume bullets creates several paragraphs of space or info listed in columns

Hello,

When I try to copy and paste resume bullets into a new document, the new doc doesn't keep the formatting I select,  no matter what I choose If I use a completed Resume and add what I want, the same spacing will appear or the new info will go into columns.

I've done this many times over the years and never had an issue until possibly around last September (2024). I've checked the paragraph formatting and adjusted the variables (spacing before or after and indentation) I get the same result. I've even tried using completely new Word docs. I do not understand what the issue is.

I tried contacting Windows support, and they were less than helpful. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
